Can Liberty Flames Blaze Past Western Kentucky Hilltoppers at E. A. Diddle Arena?
As the Liberty Flames prepare to face the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers at E. A. Diddle Arena, fans are eager to see if their team can maintain their recent dominant form on the road. The Flames have been on a hot streak, showcasing a strong offensive game that has left opponents struggling to keep up.
In their last outing against Boyce Bulldogs, the Flames torched the opposition with an 88-46 victory, demonstrating a high-octane offense that shot 53 percent from the field and an impressive 44 percent from beyond the arc. Their defensive prowess was equally notable with ten steals and a staggering assist-to-turnover ratio of 4.0.
However, this momentum was slightly derailed in their subsequent game against Alabama Crimson Tide where they faced a tough 101-56 defeat. Despite this setback, it's important to note that it was a neutral-site encounter and such games can often produce unpredictable results.
The Flames bounced back in style when they visited Utah Valley Wolverines' court, securing a convincing 79-63 win while shooting an exceptional 61 percent from the field and continuing their trend of effective ball distribution with another solid assist-to-turnover ratio of 2.2.
The upcoming clash at E.A Diddle Arena presents another opportunity for Liberty to assert its dominance away from home soil but doing so will require them to bring both their offensive efficiency and defensive tenacity into play once more.
Fans can catch all the action live on CBS Sports Network channel 221 as Liberty takes on Western Kentucky Hilltoppers on January 6th at 6:00 PM Eastern Time (5:00 PM Central). With both teams looking to assert themselves early in January, this is one matchup you won't want to miss!
